[ TacEdit ] bug - edits not saved in TE

Post by ccc » 2009-05-18 07:27:54

Just for record,

TacEdit ( V2.47 )

=> when you delete obj links and re-link them in a *.tac file( TE file ), the edits won't be saved.

you can do some edits, save, exit, then re-start TacEdit to check your edits -> not saved!

= > similar edits on a *.cam ( campaign file) can be saved.

And if someone is wondering about this bug, they should not worry as nobody should edit te_new.tac file directly. All objective editing needs to be done to the save0.cam file from which its exported to all other campaign and TE files.

alright, i figured out a trick to edit tac_new.tac with TacEdit.v2.47

simple, i rename it as tac_new.cam, do my edits, save. then save as another filename.tac

it works. :mrgreen:
